Abstract excerpt
Allele frequency distribution of CTG-repeat in the 3'-flanking region of DMPK gene was analyzed in populations of Yakutia (three ethnogeographical groups of Yakuts, Evenks, Evens, Yukaghirs, Dolgans) and Central Asia (Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Uighurs). Frequencies of CTG alleles were found to be significantly different in two regions. Allele frequency distribution in populations of Yakutia was similar to Asian...
